Yahoo Sports Releases 2024 SEC Rankings

Yahoo Sports had the Tennessee Volunteers in the upper-half of the SEC heading into the 2024 season.

Many are high on what the Tennessee Volunteers could be heading into the 2024 season. However, their road to a potential College Football Playoff berth will inevitably be blocked by several powerhouses that they must unseat to have the season they expect. Yahoo Sports ranked the fourteen SEC teams heading into the 2024 season and had strong words about what the Vols could be. You can read the full article here.

"Like Oklahoma, Tennessee will be breaking in a new quarterback in Nico Iamaleava, but they have the benefit of offensive playcaller continuity. They offense isn’t changing. There may be some growing pains, but he’s a talented player. The Volunteers have averaged nine wins a season under Josh Heupel." - Yahoo Sports on Tennessee

Their improvement hinges on redshirt freshman quarterback Nico Iamaleava, who won the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl MVP after accounting for four touchdowns against the Iowa Hawkeyes. Tennessee returns a host of offensive playmakers around him and has added several quality bodies in the NCAA Transfer Portal that should make a positive impact next year.
